Judges think they can't be touched. They can.
He should but I bet he won’t.
I say they impeach the judge that made this ruling.
It has already been reversed on appeal to the 9th Circuit Court.
Have faith. Trump isn’t a cuckservative. He and Darth Bannon know what they’re doing.
I think he believes some, if not a large majority, will refuse to enforce the law, thus weakening him beyond repair.
When applying the existing law to any legal document, the court under most case law can consider extraneously otherwise in-obmissable evidence only if such evidence totally negates factual evidence. This judge clearly voided his own stupid logic be saying that his own opinion would have been different if the originator of the executive order were someone other than Trump...clearly his own bias in violation of existing law. Disgusting judicial tyranny and should easily be overturned even on appeal to the sleazy 9th Circuit.
Too early yet. They need to get more rope to hang themselves.
Thinking the same way. Don’t get this.
The law can’t be more clear, this guy is way beyond out of line.
he should be summarily found in competennt by the DOJ and at least suspended due to incompetence or mental issues, if not straight up in contempt.
What say he decrees every constitutionally authorized presidential power is subject to his politically correct liking?
So in the new bizarro world where case law president out weighs the constitution, there is now a foundation for challaenging the executive branch.
A foundation to now clog up everything from pardoning a Turkey at thanksgiving, to the War powers act.
I don’t get this either sir...
Because he is not the one executing his order. Numerous low level officials and staff members of various departments are the ones at the front lines, and they don’t want to be the ones breaking the law....
President Trump must prevail eventually. Ban the terrorism suspects — go Trump!
Trump lays down.
No freaking way if I was the POTUS with this clear written law on my side roll over.
WTH Trump ???
The Constitution has no such clause. Congress has authority over immigration, and Congress has written a law giving the President such authority.
"Where does it state, in the Constitution, that a federal judge can override the president in this matter?"
In those sections that make the Constitution the supreme law of the land, and the courts the judge of the law. The law includes the Constitution. Presidents are subject to the law too.
There are ways to change the law if we don't like the way the courts interpret it. There is no provision for ignoring the courts.
"Trump should carry on and implement the E.O. What is anyone going to do about it? Impeachment? It takes 2/3 of the Senate to convict and the Dems don't have the vote."
Yes, and that's exactly what you'd see if Trump were that foolish. Presidents do not get to defy the law. We did not elect a king. The freepers I see suggesting such nonsense need to think a little harder. What would they have done had Obama done what they say Trump should do? What would they do when the next Democratic President followed the precedent he would set?
You would see impeachment, and you'd see Republicans supporting it.
Why doesn’t President Trump ignore the ruling?
Because he is not stupid.
Nixon tried to avoid the courts and it cost him. Never hand people the rope with which to hang you.
4 years from now, the long-ball view of My President’s Presidency will be that this current lower dust-up will be a very minor item. It will be resolved.
Right now, NOTING IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN GETTING THE HONORABLE MR. GORSUCH INTO THE SCOTUS.
He needs to get control of the DOJ and prosecute crooked politicians... McCain, Clinton, Obama, and many more in Congress and agencies. Put them in prison.
He needs to really drain the swamp, and put the fear of God into the whole corrupt government.
Anything short of that and we're all toast.
We need to have the (long notoriously bad) 9th circuit broken up into 2 or maybe 3 circuits.
and
yes, it is increasingly clear that the SorozNazi-DNC and their nefarious co-conspirators....whatever....are trying to cancel our elections retroactively and saboutage president Trump, dump Trump through constant disruption, street violence and intimidation, lies (mass media puppet shows called “news”) and by having illegal rulings spewed forth by political “judges”
the executive (presidency) is, however, a co-equal branch of government, the judiciary is not superior to it. And, the presidency is primarily entrusted by the constitution (and statutes directly on point) with not only the power but the duty to exclude any persons of any religions or nationalities that he believes represent a danger to USA. Period. In the area of national defense, the executive is primary. In the area of immigration law, congress is primary and congress has charged the president with the duty to exclude undesirable persons, as above. The courts are not primary in either national defense nor immigration.
Meaning, not only should DJT “defy” the illegal court rulings, but that he will find he HAS TO, either now or later in order to carry out his term of office. Remember that the clear intention, plan, plot, scheme of the communistic IslamoNazi leftists is mass-scale disruption of our elected government by illegal Judicial “orders” (and street thuggery, etc.). Given DJT will HAVE to “stand up to” (ignore) the illegal court orders eventually, THIS is a very excellent issue for him to do it with (national defense being a primarily-presidential responsibility PLUS immigration policy and duties having been clearly delegated, assigned by Congress to the President).
Taking a similar stand on some other illegal court rulings dealing with other subject matter could be criticized more substantially, but standing up or ignoring the courts when they so obviously seek to usurp proper presidential actions in areas of activity so clearly within presidential and not judicial primary functions ... well, it is a superior position for DJT to work from.
Go Trump! Drain the Swamp (including the judicial swamp).
I would like to see them hauled before Sessions and forced to explain themselves.
They are not the 3rd branch of the government, SCOTUS is. They are an inferior court. That’s how I understand it. Is that correct?
QUE the Drama ....
Trump should appear at the appeal hearing himself. Read the relevant laws and statutes and Constitutional enumerations.
